This book argues that using social capital to eradicate poverty is less likely to succeed because the mainstream neoinstitutional approach mistakenly assumes that social capital necessarily benefits poor people. This inadequacy calls for a re-assessment of human motivations, institutional dynamics and structural complexity in social capital building.\u003cbr\u003eUsing ethnographic and participatory methods, this book calls for an exploration of 'unseen' social capital which is intended to challenge the mainstream understanding of 'seen' social capital. As such this book is useful to policy makers and practitioners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sam Wong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9053560343\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789053560341\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.19h x 6.31w x 0.51d","brand":"Sam Wong","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136995176703,"sku":"9789053560341","price":66.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fe99d2e4-9410-4f97-9ebb-181f19e2e012.jpg?v=1770165841","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exploring-unseen-social-capital-in-sam-wong-9789053560341","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
